5 minutes prior to that ...

PB's wife: you knew I was looking forward to that car! You've embarrassed me. You go right back and apologise and buy it!!! Or no nookie for the next ...... forever!!!!!!

For a recently newlywed like Bell the ‘no nookie’ approach may have currency. However after several years of marriage it may become an empty threat.

I think so too. Still learning who is what here.

Won't happen again with that muppet.

If I am the ‘muppet’ then you have misread @Deestroy All’s diagnosis...

You can email all your thoughts on Jesse Hogan to peter.bell@fremantlefc.com.au

I have already done it and told him what I think. 

All Noise, posturing and fugazzi.

The deal will happen.

Are we all sure we have all the information?

I don't think so.

That's the only other thing I'm sure of.  We don't.

Here's the bit that gets me:

Freo (apparently) had told Jesse's management that they would do the deal, involving their pick 6.  They then proceed to trade that out so that deal cannot get done.  WTF?

 

This is the bit that gets me angry.

Sell the trade they have for multiple larger numbers and then say the deal is off. That is Primary School etiquette

From this post I can only assume you are unaware of this poster’s history. I will suggest that you treat the info he shares with some circumspection and leave it at that.

But hang on mate. Dangerfield is coming isn't he?

I'm feeling content - no lose situation.

Trade with Fremantle will happen at a reasonable price and we'll on trade for May.

Trade doesn't happen and an exciting experiment with Jesse at CHB in 2019.

The dogs may bark but the caravan rolls along.

... that tackler is a Nigerian prince whose father the king has been imprisoned by military plotters and his $100m fortune has been frozen by banks. And PB has been specially selected to gain 10% of that for a small favour ...

I just told him how amazing Jesse is and that he should just do the deal and leave the thinking to those better qualified for it.

Bell's comment about due diligence didn't refer to checking out the player.  I supposed  Bell was just  trying to use big 'business-speak' words instead of simply saying that they won't continue negotiating because MFC is asking far too much.    That seemed to fit the context in his press release and the point made by SFebes.   

Signs of a person who is not very confident in the decisions and actions that he might take or gets involved in, yet still insists on punching above his weight.

Projection level  -  Infinity

Spot on.

It's funny isn't it and a pretty good microcosm of the fetid, stagnant pool of rumour, half truths and calculated lies that passes for reporting and 'news'  this time of year.

I mean the opinion of a middle age bloke who had an affair with a teen, is called toot root by everyone because of his out of control drug habit, has been barred as a player agent and is in total disgrace gets oxygen. Crazy.

Maybe Jesse was not very impressed by what he saw at Freo

one wouldn't need to be einstein

i can't fathom why jesse would want to go to freo of all places even before this fiasco


Hogan may not like what he saw at Freo , however it would be easy money for him to make !!!! . Reminds me of the old days at Demonland , when we got smashed by 186 pts players laughed about it, one player got dropped. If that wasn't easy money for playing for a club , I don't know what is .

This article provides nothing. No direct quote or even a vague reference to an ‘unnamed source’. Just a hunch on the part of the journo. Yet based on this most of you are piling back on believing Jesse will be a Docker by Wednesday. 

I’m telling you right now. They’ve gone cold on him. Bell isn’t bluffing, they’re no longer interested.

We’re stuck with Hogan for 12 months and this will all happen again next year.

My interpretation was a more basic version of the same: dumb footballer trying to use corporate [censored] speak and mincing his words.

and why trade the pick that was already agreed upon ?  as from what been said a deal was done for 6 and a second round pick  in principal then freo  traded pick 6 !

And if you are wrong you will have Peter Bell as your avatar for a year.

Being stuck with Cale Morton was a lot worse. No doubt about it

  • NON-MFC: Round 06

    The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.
